Wanpeng Li f49cbdde49 mm/thp: fix doc for transparent huge zero page
Transparent huge zero page is used during the page fault instead of in
khugepaged.

  # ls /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/
  defrag  enabled  khugepaged  use_zero_page
  # ls /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/
  alloc_sleep_millisecs  defrag  full_scans  max_ptes_none  pages_collapsed  pages_to_scan  scan_sleep_millisecs

This patch corrects the documentation just like the codes done.

Kirill A. Shutemov 79da5407ee thp: introduce sysfs knob to disable huge zero page
By default kernel tries to use huge zero page on read page fault.  It's
possible to disable huge zero page by writing 0 or enable it back by
writing 1:

echo 0 >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/use_zero_page
echo 1 >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/use_zero_page

Kirill A. Shutemov d8a8e1f0da thp, vmstat: implement HZP_ALLOC and HZP_ALLOC_FAILED events
hzp_alloc is incremented every time a huge zero page is successfully
	allocated. It includes allocations which where dropped due
	race with other allocation. Note, it doesn't count every map
	of the huge zero page, only its allocation.

hzp_alloc_failed is incremented if kernel fails to allocate huge zero
	page and falls back to using small pages.

Kirill A. Shutemov e180377f1a thp: change split_huge_page_pmd() interface
Pass vma instead of mm and add address parameter.

In most cases we already have vma on the stack. We provides
split_huge_page_pmd_mm() for few cases when we have mm, but not vma.

This change is preparation to huge zero pmd splitting implementation.
